Sony HD camcorder MTS-files won't play faultless.

TV Philips 42PFL8404H/12 & 40PFL 7605H/12

The recordings of a Sony HD camcorder with extension 'MTS' are not recognized on my Philips TV sets.
LG-TV recognizes the files, and all files start to play (with sound) but within 3 or 4 seconds the playing is halted and loaded (the turning circle on the TV screen) and continues playing for half a second halting again and loading the next part and playing till the image freezes within the next half second.

The Sony DV Camcorder recordings that I've transferred to an 'm2ts' file-format are acting on my LG-TV exaclty the same.
On the Philips TV-sets however they play :? perfectly. Rename the MTS to m2ts does not help ofcourse.

As I'm not the only-one with a camcorder, maybe someone has experienced this behaviour earlier and found a solution.

( :!: The logfile seemed to be too big so I've created two parts P1 and P2.)

thank you for posting those. I will look at them, but I am not the Guru on transcoding. Hopefully Illico will be on soon and look at these and tell you what you need to do.

Please, could you also provide MediaInfo result of these two files (see signature link) ?
It seems that m2ts used 50framerate.

UnfortunateIy I was unable to create the mediainfo file this week .

The camcorderfile however is on top of my wishlist for playable files!
As they are recognized and played with pauses I hope that there is a 'settings solution' available, instead of a file conversion.

Here is the file you've asked for (This is the file with serviiolog Sony HD Camera P1+P2)
